Armin Strom, founded in 1967 by the eponymous watchmaker, was bought by Serge Michel’s family in 2006. Serge Michel graduated from a hotel management school in 2002 and worked in a number of luxury hotels abroad before changing direction, working as a PR consultant and subsequently a lecturer in marketing. He is currently CEO of Armin Strom, managing the company alongside Claude Greisler who, like Michel, was born in 1978.
Claude Greisler became fascinated with watches as a child, thanks to the influence of his grandparents, who worked in the industry.

In 2003 Claude Greisler joined Christophe Claret as a watch builder and in 2006 he become head of watch design at Armin Strom. He was made its director in 2012.
